[AusNOG] Hey Google, why are you in bed with Telstra?

I just had a lengthy online chat with someone from the Google Home/Google
Nest support team, and they'll be taking quite a few feature requests
around calling on the devices to their next product meeting. They were
quite open to ideas and different use cases for their products. It's easy
to start a chat from the support pages.

If you have a Google Home device, please say to your Google Home Speaker
“Ok Google, send feedback” then wait for the Google assistant ask what is
the feedback then say“ Inbound and outbound Calling” and their product team
will receive it from your end. The more feedback the better... :)

I didn't have time to discuss Google Voice (that's another team), but
Google is definitely interested in expanding their feature set.

Jamie
